- This is in the spirit of #5090.
- Move to a fork of gitea.com/go-chi/cache,
code.forgejo.org/go-chi/cache. It removes unused code (a lot of
adapters, that can't be used by Forgejo) and unused dependencies (see
go.sum). Also updates existing dependencies.

- It was noticed [in the Forgejo matrix channel](https://matrix.to/#/!qjPHwFPdxhpLkXMkyP:matrix.org/$vk78UR0eFCwQMDMTZ7-DWjMVB_LIAwHW6SkjhEcGkQQ?via=matrix.org) that the generation of the Forgejo project contributor stats was taking quite a while on codeberg.org. This was continued with the fact that a few moments later it was once again generating them again; it seemed like they weren't being cached while they were.
- The problem was that the cache TTL is hardcoded to ten minutes and not to the configured TTL. This patch changes that by using the configured TLL for the contributor cache, as this is a computationally heavy operation and should be cached for as long as possible for a good user experience. This doesn't impact the accuracy of this feature because the commit ID of the default branch is used as a cache key.
- Also changed in this patch, is that errors aren't cached and are instead being logged, this is more helpful to the administrator. For the user essentially nothing changed on this side, the contributor stats just looks like it's loading indefinitely.
- Realistically, testing this isn't possible, as the cache library Forgejo currently uses doesn't expose the TTL or expiration time of a key. Manually testing this behavior is quite lengthy, as one of the steps would need to be "wait for ten minutes" and describe how you can notice the data was cached or was just generated, and because you could use different types of cache, it will be quite hard to write down how you could check the TTL of a key for a particular cache (I'm not even sure it's even possible for some).
- The code that gets contributor stats tried to store an
`map[string]*ContributorData` type in the cache, this works for the
memory cache but not for other caches such as Redis.
- The cache implementation for Redis would convert this map via
`fmt.Sprintf` to an string, which would simply print the pointer and not
the value of the pointer. Storing pointers is a no-go as this will get
GC-ed eventually within a few minutes. Therefore store everything with
json, that does properly store the value of the pointers.
- Adds unit test that verifies JSON is being used.
- Resolves https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/3158

#### Overview
This is the implementation of a requested feature: Contributors graph
(#847)
It makes Activity page a multi-tab page and adds a new tab called
Contributors. Contributors tab shows the contribution graphs over time
since the repository existed. It also shows per user contribution graphs
for top 100 contributors. Top 100 is calculated based on the selected
contribution type (commits, additions or deletions).

#### Demo
(The demo is a bit old but still a good example to show off the main
features)

</video>
#### Features:
- Select contribution type (commits, additions or deletions)
- See overall and per user contribution graphs for the selected
contribution type
- Zoom and pan on graphs to see them in detail
- See top 100 contributors based on the selected contribution type and
selected time range
- Go directly to users' profile by clicking their name if they are
registered gitea users
- Cache the results so that when the same repository is visited again
fetching data will be faster
